So my little miracle is now three months old. Amazed..I guess that's the word to describe how I feel.
I know I have been absent for two weeks. Let me just tell yall* that some pretty big changes are happening around these parts*. Some scary, exciting, life changing changes. I can't talk about it yet, but soon. In addition to these "changes" I have been planning Austin fourth birthday. I am so blissfully busy right now that I honestly did not have time to blog. Plus I needed the break. Life is so hectic but in a good way....
Austin is doing great. I wish I had a ton of pics of him to share but I don't. He does not like pictures, and as you can see, he does not hide that fact! Ha! Hopefully it is just a phase!
He has started spelling now and I am so thrilled. I love that he asks how to spell things. As always, he adores his brother so very much. In fact he loves him so much, that we have to sometimes stop him from giving to many kisses. It is so cute! I just can not believe it has been four wonderful years with him....
Easton is getting BIG! He is just now three months and is wearing 6 month to 6-9 month clothing. Austin was the same way. My babies chunk up from their wonderful food ;) I am such a huge breastfeeding advocate. Unfortunately this time has been very very hard on me. We are now on antibiotics again for my third bout of mastitis. We also have horrible thrush that will not go away. Diflucan and nystatin won't even touch this stuff....sigh. BUT................
The reason I have mastitis again.............
He is sleeping through the night in HIS CRIB!!!! It is a huge milestone for the both of us!! He goes down every night at 9 and sleeps till around 5. Then he come and finishes the night in my bed. I just can't believe my little one is sleeping though....what a blessing. I truly believe that it has been easier due to the fact that I am home full time. I can set his schedule through the day. I love being a mom....it is definitely what I was born to do!
Alright so I will stop boring you and share my pics! Blogger wont let me upload so I will give you my flickr link...

a new lunch guest, a fun video, an update, and mastitis take 2
So we were eating our lunch and look who came to join us in our backyard! I can't help but to feel bad for the little lizard...
You HAVE to watch this. I had no idea he knew this song. I guess Daddy doesn't only sing lullabies at night ;)

Alright so we had EJ's two month check up on monday. He is 13lbs 15oz and 22.75 inches long. Head measures 40cm. He continues to grow very well. Our pediatrician is so thrilled with how well he is doing. We also decided to delay all his vaccines until 6 months due to his severe allergies. We also discovered he is allergic to beef. He is actually allergic to the cow protein in milk and unfortunately this is also in beef. So, only turkey meatloaf for this mama!! Despite all these things, he is so darn cute! He is smiling all the time and "talking" up a storm. His little personality is taking off and I LOVE it! I can't believe he is 10 weeks today!! Oh how time flies when your having fun!
All toasty after a bath. He loves his baths!
Austin is also doing great! He truly is so very smart! We have been working on addition and subtraction and he is doing very well! Math is definitely a strength for him. Phonics are going well as he is memorizing all the sounds the letters make. He can also tell you what letter a word starts with just by hearing it. Of course certain letters are easier for him. He is my sweet, kind, affection, ball of energy.
As for me, I have been battling another bout of mastitis. This time it hit my right breast. The only reason this is bad is because that is the side that produces the majority of Eastons food. The supply on my left side was wiped out due to the mastitis a couple months ago. Well now, my supply has suffered on the right as well. This is very dangerous because EJ can not take a bottle at all. So if I can't make enough milk, we will have to feed him with a dropper. Can you imagine how long that will take? So please, please pray that my supply rebounds quickly and no permanent decrease will occur. I know that everything will work out, hopefully....
Well that's it for this post! I will keep you updated.
God Bless!
